If Russias response was to call the warning a "provocation by the USA" then yes. They just dismissed it and this is what they got.
They dismissed it after the 48 hours elapsed and nothing happened.
The US shared shoddy intel.
Shoddy intel which was better than what the FSB had on offer.
I wasn't aware you had contacts in the FSB. Do tell. The public nature of the announcement likely pushed the terrorists to ground and forced them to come up with a new plan. Duty to warn is usually done privately for a reason.
If you think the FSB had good intel, that means you think they decided to ignore it and allow the terrorist attack in Moscow to happen.
I don't think they're that evil. But hey, maybe you're right.
